I got some nice letters from other printers that also take part in the letterpress edible project organized by Roxy Columbus. I finished my lot last week.
Along with the seeds I sent a postcard "eat your greens" printed with copper. I borrowed the ink from a befriended artist 'cause I was faszinated how copper would look.
The wet copper looks really cool, but once dried it's more brown with just a little shimmer.
But this may be caused by the paper I used. I actually like the paper, it's made of a percentage of by-products from olives, corn, fruits and nuts and this fits perfect to the letterpress edible project. But the paper sucks ink a lot as most uncoated paper does. So I guess this was the one and only experiment with metallic ink for me. It also smells terrible.
But back to the project: see what the other participants sent out on the FB page.
